The Promise and Peril of Philanthrocapitalism: Alternatives to Build a Better World

What are the successes and challenges of Philanthrocapitalism? We highlight the evolving role of wealthy individuals and businesses in addressing social and environmental issues, the impact of political changes on philanthropy, and the future of social progress in a rapidly changing world. The conversation focuses on the need for a shift away from GDP-centric thinking towards a more holistic approach to societal well-being. What will happen to the United States with Trump’s new economic policies? Is America close to social breakdown? As the world deals with pressing challenges such as geopolitical risks and the climate crisis, could we still rely on philanthrocapitalists to make a change? Special guest: Matthew Bishop, distinguished journalist, author, and social entrepreneur.Please follow and rate our show! Explore our work at https://www.socialprogress.org/Interested in the Social Progress Index?
